Hats off to @zomato and the delivery partners for setting a new standard in community safety.
These heroes are truly redefining roadside assistance. 🚑💪🇮🇳Last month, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had praised Zomato's founder and called his journey "inspiring". Taking to social media platform X, PM Modi reposted a video of Goyal where he revealed what his father said when he told him about his startup idea.
